There's nothing like 'pass by value/pass by r

There's nothing like "type casting" in Python. You did not "cast the
list to a string", you created a string from a list.

This one is a class attribute - it's shared betwe

Ah - I found out why I had cast it to a string. I had not, at that
point, worked out ho to pass the list by value rather than reference,
and so was casting to a string as a stopgap measure that I then forgot
about. Now the problem is fixed after this group told me how to pass a

Using Fredericks advice I managed to track down the problem - it was
really very stupid. I had accidentally cast the list to a string
earlier in another part of the code. Its a bit of an anticlimax really
- not mysterious at all (just mysteriously remiss on my part)

We know that. Fredrik deduced it and told you well over an hour ago.
Show us the code that is creating instances of the panel class ...
panel1 =
panel(num
Thanks for the advice - I'm already doing just that, so hopefully will
soon be sorted :-p

...and when I print out the string, it is still formatted as one would
expect a list to be:
"['01', '02', '03', '04']"

Ah... my list is a string. That explains the len() results, but not why
it is a string in the dirst place.
I have a dictionary containing a number of instances of the following
class as values:
class panel:
mops =[]
def __init__(self,number,level,location,mops,matrix):
self.numb
